I'm looking for something to put in the many recessed "cans"(?) that

things. But, with 18 of these things drawing 60 watts apiece, it
would be nice to reduce my power consumption if I could.


Try LED lights.

They are expensive but they use almost no electricity and you can get
from 50,000 to 100,000 hours of use out of them.

And they are instant on.
